Windsor Terrace Reserve

Locals with young kids know Windsor Terrace Reserve as a solid, no-fuss spot that just works. The enclosed play area gives parents a bit of breathing room — you can actually sit at the picnic tables and keep an eye on things without constantly chasing someone toward the street. Kids aged 2 to 10 are pretty well covered between the climbing structure, slides, swings, and a sandbox that always seems to have a crew of toddlers doing serious construction work. The open grass field out the back is great when they’ve burned through the playground and still have energy left. Nothing flashy, but it’s the kind of local park you end up at two or three times a week without thinking twice.
